Keeping Everything In Place

Yuki is just watching it all unfold. The sequence and happenings are just from what she remembers, so she isn't worry. As she sips her tea with the butterflies and screens around her being the only source of the light inside the room.

The group have already finished fighting the Lightning guard, after that, they placed a camouflage camera on the CCTV, made by Giannini. Hibari on the other side is having fun and already getting bored on the one sided battle he is having.

But it seems like Ginger Bread cannot be deceived by the trick they did on the CCTV camera. He cornered them at the Surveillance System Server, and Lal was forced to fight him.

Yuki listened to all of the drama with her tea. She feel sympathy for Lal, because she knows what it feels to lose someone, and that person they love doing something for the sake of their life with a huge sacrifice.. (Not like she actually knew what Lucas sacrificed).

She first wanted to die.. To be with Lucas... But now she slowly thinks that she have to live, to treasure the life that Lucas has saved... To continue her duties as the Snow of Vongola Decimo. But still.. She wants to die. She couldn't live the life that Lucas given her, because what is the point of it without Lucas himself?

Yuki could only smile at Lal, 'Too bad it was just a doll.... Made by a Vindice member..' She smirked, 'Alejandro was it..? I was never closed to them to even remember their name, nor they are quite relevant.' She only got close to Bermuda and Jaeger.

Not like Bermuda trusts her entirely anyways, the same way goes to her.

Lal got too tired with her fight with Ginger Bread. She was supposed to be a decoy for the group, but with her weak state, they wouldn't allow her. That's why, Tsunayoshi volunteered to go on her stead. He fought the Gola Moscas that were sent on his way, but both sides got defeated.

Yuki stands up as she watch Spanner carry the unconscious body of Tsunayoshi out of the sewer, "I guess... This is the start of the perfect x-burner." She smiles. She stood and pat her clothes, "Maybe that's a sign for me to leave now..." But first, she needs to see somethings around this base first. 

Yuki remembered that Giannini made a machine for a automatic mammon chain cover... but she probably doesn't need that. So she skipped it. Her rings wasn't detected on the ring detection monitor anyways. Was it because of her clothes again? She wonders what types of spell Damien placed in this materials. 

Kyoko and Haru wouldn't search for her presence because they believe that she is also doing chores at Hibari's foundation. Well, that is true, but she also have Kusakabe helping her. The man wouldn't even let her do a single chore at the foundation, except for cooking (since Kusakabe knows how much Hibari likes them). Yuki was almost deciding on using a spell on him, but she is sure Hibari wouldn't like her lifting a hand on his trusted subordinate. 

In the conference room, where Reborn and Giannini are, keeping contact with the raid group. Giannini is setting something on the long table of the room while Reborn is having a tea while watching it. They kind of lost contact with the team earlier. 

"Yuki?" Reborn turned his head to the entrance of the room and saw the girl, "What is it?"

"Can I go after Tsunayoshi's group?" She asks seriously. That caught Giannini and Reborn off guard, "Why? They can do their mission well." Reborn said. He really doesn't want Yuki to be with the group, especially now that they can't contact them well. 

"I'll be careful, so please-"

"No." 

"Reborn-"

"It is dangerous, Yuki."
